1961 Map of Sierra Fijardo

About this map

Cibola National Forest encompasses the high desert terrain of this region, where steep ridges and deep arroyos define the movement of water and livestock. The map highlights the rugged topography of the Sierra Fijardo and Sierras Mediano, punctuated by locally named landmarks like Whiskey Hill, Eagles Roost, and Rattlesnake Hill. Human activity in the early 1960s was centered on ranching and resource extraction, evidenced by the Flying X Ranch, a Gravel Pit, and the H Bierner No 2 Res.
